Screw the Children

The 2006 budget proposed by the Bush administration is truly sickening. This “article by Molly Ivins”:http://www.truthout.org/issues_05/H022105B.shtml says it so well that I’m too disgusted to comment.

For a friendlier version of how easy it would be to change our budget priorities, “Ben Cohen explains it with cookies”:http://www.truemajority.org/fun/.

One thought on “Screw the Children

  1. Wow. “Promote the general welfare,” that’s right. That’s in the Preamble to the Constitution. I hadn’t even thought of that in terms of governmental responsibilities. I like it. I will use it in arguments.

    1. Form a more perfect union

    2. Establish justice

    3. Ensure domestic tranquility

    4. Provide for the common defense

    5. Promote the general welfare

    6. Secure the blessings of liberty

    Very basic.

    And yes, I’m sure you have that song in your head now.
